Oil level concern with Turbo

Asked by GuruW31SF Jun 01, 2018 at 04:24 PM about the 2012 Volvo S60 T5

Question type: General

I am about to buy a 2012 Volvo S60 T5 with under 30,000 miles but no
maintenance records and my mechanic, upon inspection, noticed that the oil
level was on the lowest spot of the dipstick. Otherwise the car seemed to be
clean.  Should I be concerned enough not to buy the vehicle?  It has no
warrantee.

The owner ran it low on oil which probably means it uses oil. Did the inspector note any other issues?
